Finally got the heads off(we've been taking our time, we're lazy), and it seems that the piston ring shattered and pieces were floating around the cyclinder. Not too much damage as far as we can see. Still have to tear down the bottom end, and see how bad the piston is.
Good news on the More Power front. After the heads get fluxed and rebuilt, they will be residing on the Cobra. The VOrtech is still up for debate, and as you can guess, I am pushing for the Cobra to get it. Go figure.

I took pics of everything, but the pieces are too small to see in the photo. The way I figure it, 14#'s of boost in the Cobra, equal up to about 450 rw.

Ahhhhhhhh, sweet sound of victory. More to come. Later.
